Fueling the American Economy by Reducing Sulfur Emissions

Our Mission

The Coalition for American Energy Security (CAES) is committed to the scheduled implementation of the International Maritime Organization’s 2020 low-sulfur fuel standards, which America’s energy industry is best positioned to meet. IMO 2020 will be good for U.S. workers, the environment, and will strengthen America’s energy dominance in the global oil market.

Did you know the average annual salary for someone working in oil & gas development is $116k? @AXPC_US President Bruce Thompson discusses how #IMO2020 promotes these well-paying jobs and spurs economic growth (via @dcexaminer) https://t.co/VdxAIidPjn

To comply with #IMO2020, shippers can either install #scrubbers or exchange their high-sulfur fuel for a low-sulfur alternative such as #LNG or light, sweet crude—both of which are widely produced in the United States. Click here to learn more: https://t.co/JKelDJtdbx

Last month, a group of senators wrote to @POTUS in support of #IMO2020 because "the U.S. is well-positioned to benefit from the new standards." Click here to read the full letter: https://t.co/60rrYgBBJv #EnergyDominance

According to @ENERGY, #LNG exports could add between $50 and $73 billion to the U.S. economy by 2040, while creating between 220,000 and 453,000 jobs. With #IMO2020 increasing demand for LNG, this is a win-win for America. Via @charlieriedl of @LNGFacts: https://t.co/is5dyeXWpF

Did you know that the U.S. currently implements, enforces, and benefits from stricter sulfur standards? New research by Drs. James Corbett and Edward Carr shows how #IMO2020 is "good policy for the United States". Read more here: https://t.co/ziBHlUE7pn
